14 Aug J. Lo Teams Up with HydraFacial
HydraFacial is the innovative 3-in-1 luxury treatment that simultaneously exfoliates, extracts gunk from pores, and infuses the skin with medical-grade topicals. It is one of the most popular treatments at Parson Skin Center, especially in the summer months when skin tends to act up. It is quick, easy, pamper-ful, and you and your provider can select from a variety of boosters to finish off your treatment making every appointment one of a kind. Unlike some other 3-in-1 treatments, HydraFacial isn’t limited to just one brand of booster. Recently, the never-aging J. Lo teamed up with HydraFacial to create some new boosters that you have to try.
HydraFacial has long been loved by celebrities. Treatments take just 30 minutes and, since it’s a wet vac approach, it’s suitable for those with more sensitive skin. In-office exfoliation no more than once per month is a great way to encourage cell turnover, get rid of dead skin cells, and continuously reveal more youthful skin below the surface. To make HydraFacial even better, you can add on dermaplaning to the start of your appointment. Dermaplaning uses a specialized scalpel to remove peach fuzz and the very top layer of skin for a baby-smooth feel. It’s a kind of exfoliation that is still gentle enough to be paired with HydraFacial for a double boost of softness.
The HydraFacial Experience
While exfoliating, HydraFacial is also hard at work cleaning out pores using a vacuum suction. Pores can easily get clogged in the summertime with an increase in sweat and sebum production, as well as use of products like sunscreen. Clogged pores look bigger and can mimic the look of “strawberries” or blackheads. Routine extractions are recommended, but this can be risky and time-consuming at home. Rather than a traditional esthetician extraction service, HydraFacial is quick and easy. Skin is always professionally cleansed prior to a HydraFacial treatment, and thanks to the transparent chamber you can see exactly what was hiding on and in the skin’s surface after the treatment.
As soon as pores are cleaned out, they “shrink” to offer a much smoother and youthful appearance. Now that the skin has been exfoliated and extracted, it’s time for the final step: infusion. HydraFacial is always teaming up with the best brands to create new boosters to make the treatment even more customizable. The J. Lo booster uses ingredients sourced from around the world, all designed to brighten, hydrate, and tighten the skin. This includes olive leaf extract to slow down the signs of aging, a specialized hydro-complex with acids and extracts that provide suppleness and plumpness, a fermented adaptogen blend to get that J. Lo dewy glow, and niacinamide to moisturize, smooth, and protect.
Make the Most of a HydraFacial
You can get routine HydraFacial treatments, or schedule one the day of a big event. Dermaplaning is an exceptional add-on to start your appointment, but you may also want to consider microneedling. Microneedling is a kind of collagen induction therapy that is best done on a monthly basis, but it works by creating micro-channels in the skin. These tiny channels close up quickly, but if this procedure is performed during a HydraFacial appointment it allows boosters (like J. Lo’s) to better penetrate and do their job.
After your HydraFacial, one of the finishing touches is, of course, sunscreen. This is a great way to try out a new-to-you medical-grade sunscreen without committing to the entire bottle. There is no downtime required and you can immediately put on makeup if you wish. Results are immediate, which is why many people schedule these treatments the day of a big event. Routine HydraFacial treatments mean you probably won’t need to exfoliate at home and you’ll enjoy a sustained glow year-round. It’s an excellent treat for continuous pampering and every appointment is unique because your skin is always changing—which means its needs (and booster matches) are always changing.
